	The Cities of the Tribe of Benjamin
		Gebah, Gibeah, Gibath-Binjamin, Gibath-Shaul, גבע גבעת גבעת בנימן גבעת שאול Geba and Gibea denoted one and the same place, for in Judges 19 it is always called Gibeah; still in 20:30 we find Geba; also in 5:33, "the cave of Geba." So also in Joshua 18:24, the word is also Geba.
		Kirjath-Jearim was at the south, and Geba at the north, and the boundary line ran through both; so that it is still visible at this day, namely, because the boundary line ran along the road which leads to Jaffa.
		Geba was thus a city of Benjamin, whilst Kirjath-Jearim is assigned to both Benjamin and Judah.

		Rivers have become tidal-influenced, converting them into a series of small estuaries and creating a very irregular coastline (Figure C-23.2).
		The large estuary of the Geba River is quite similar to the Choptank and Nanticoke tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay.
		The abundant river discharge due to the high rainfall (2000 to 3000 mm/yr (Orme, 1982)) results in considerable flow of terrigenous sediments onto the continental shelf.
